Faculty Resources

Office of Academic Affairs

The Office of Academic Affairs is the source for all issues involving faculty life
at the University. This office manages the faculty hiring process, the tenure review
process, and faculty promotion and retention issues. Faculty salary information is
continually maintained and monitored by the office to ensure equity in faculty hiring
and ongoing salary issues relative to our comparison market. Faculty are encouraged
to use the office to assist in the preparation of their tenure and promotion materials.The data used for comparative faculty salaries is based on CUPA data for a select
group of colleges identified as comparable by the USHE Commissioner's Office. For
more information call 863-8700.

Faculty Workload

Faculty workload data includes class section teaching assignments and non-instructional
assignments such as approved academic activity and governance assignments. The latest
list of approved non-instructional activities may be found here: UVU Workload Equivalents (pdf: 6/29/08). This document describes and defines non-instructional activities in Academic Credit
Hour Equivalents (ACHE) and Governance Credit Hour Equivalents (GCHE). Departments
should refer to these definitions as they plan faculty workload for each semester.
Faculty workload reporting is available in UVLink and via Crystal Reports. For more
information on accessing these systems, please contact Academic IT at (801)863-8405.
